"painting" #339

A little marker bird.  !  This medium is suited to before breakfast work which is what I have in life with an out of school Captain Spectacular.  On graduating and growing up: check out this beautiful post by artist, fellow NYAA grad and dear friend Elizabeth Hutchinson.  

-The captain is awake!  7:14, it is so nice now that he sleeps late.  between ages 1-2 or so he would wake up for the day at 4am (back to sleep around 9).  I know there will be a day soon when he won't open an eye until noon at best.

Painting #338, mockingbird.

8"x10", oil on canvas.

Sketches.

Captain Spectacular graduated from Kindergarten Wednesday.  Here are a few sketches: ranunculus, view from tribecca from a photo taken last october and our friend Reina at the RISD Nature Lab yesterday.  I made them on smooth illustration board and shellac-ed them (will shellac the cityscape today) so that I can paint in oil on top.
